Weschler Speaking in Richmond

VQR contributing editor Lawrence Weschler will be speaking at Richmond’s Virginia Commonwealth University next week. He’ll be providing “a defense of loosely synapsed moments,” or unexpected intercategorical convergences. That was the topic of his lauded 2006 book, “Everything That Rises.” Ren’s work is featured in our current issue: the symposium on Ryszard Kapuściński, for which he wrangled the writers and assembled their contributions. The lecture will be on Monday the 25th, at 6:00 PM, in the Grace Street Theater. Admission is free.
